What are stainless steel posts for railings?

Stainless steel posts are vertical elements that make up the supporting structure of a railing or balustrade. They are used to hold rails, cables, glass panels or handrails. They are made from AISI 304 or AISI 316 stainless steel and are also called stainless posts, railing columns or vertical supports.

What is the difference between satin and polished finishes in stainless steel?

The satin finish has a matte, brushed appearance ideal for hiding scratches and fingerprints. The polished finish is bright and reflective and offers greater corrosion resistance, which is why it is recommended for marine or aggressive environments.

Are stainless steel railings safe for children and pets?

Yes, stainless steel railings are safe. To increase protection, you can use posts with reduced spacing between the rails, glass panels or offset handrail designs that discourage climbing.

What is the difference between posts with through-holes and posts with brackets?

Posts with through-holes allow the rails to pass through the body of the post, creating a continuous line. Posts with brackets use external supports, offering greater flexibility and adaptability during installation.

Which is better: AISI 304 or AISI 316? Which finishes are recommended?

AISI 304 is suitable for indoor or mildly aggressive environments. AISI 316, thanks to its molybdenum content, is ideal for outdoor and marine environments. In these cases, the polished finish is recommended as it offers superior corrosion protection and is available only for AISI 316.
